(Marks: 5) Mostly, people think that health and fitness are same. Do you agree with this or not? Justify your answer.

Answer:

No, am not agreeing with this because fitness and health are different. Fitness is “the physical ability to perform athletic activity.” Health, however, is defined as “the state where all the systems of the body – nervous, muscular, skeletal, circulatory, digestive, lymphatic, hormonal, etc. – are working in an optimal way….”

Most people think that fitness implies health, but the truth is that they don’t necessarily go hand in hand. It’s ideal to have both health and fitness, but by outing health first, you will always enjoy tremendous Benefits in your life.

The biggest difference between health and fitness comes down to understanding the distinction between aerobic and anaerobic exercise, between endurance and power. Aerobic means, literally, “with oxygen,” and refers to moderate exercise sustained over a period of time. Your aerobic system is your system for endurance, and encompasses the heart, lungs, blood vessels and aerobic muscles. If you activate your aerobic system with proper exercise and diet, you burn fat as your primary fuel.

On the other hand, anaerobic means, “without oxygen,” and refers to exercises that produce short bursts of power. Anaerobic exercise burns glycogen as its primary fuel, while causing the body to store fat.
